Synopsis

When a squire on a mission becomes allies with a beginning mage, are wishes enough to keep the world safe? After Henry Tsien wished for magic and the knowledge that comes with it, his world became dangerous. Finding an unlikely ally in Alexa Dumough, the Knight Templar Initiate is not the strangest thing to happen to Henry but it could be just as dangerous. As their partnership becomes friendship, Alexa teaches Henry how to survive in the supernatural world. But soon, Alexa is forced to choose between her friendship with Henry and her loyalty to the Order. Her test to become a Squire plunges them both into a trial by fire, putting their lives and magic to the test. A Squire’s Wish is book 2 of the Hidden Wishes trilogy, an urban fantasy GameLit series. It features a hidden supernatural world, friendship, magical leveling up, Knight Templars, kickass women, and shadowy supernatural organisations. No romance, no harems but pure magic and adventure.

Goodreads review by Vincent on October 22, 2019

A good, solid, if not entirely original sequel. The second volume follows the adventure of a would-be mage using a game interface to master "classic magic". The title is slightly misleading as you somehow expect the book to have the Templar character introduced in the previous book as MC. While she's......more

Book? Two Mistakes: none found Plot: wasn't anything New really. The story ends at 92% so you have another novella, not a book. Characters: While they get stronger, there isn't really any growth to their personalities or situation. 5/10 just a way to kill a few hours.......more

Not bad, but this series is missing something that would make me want to come back to it. I must admit I don't much care for any of the characters. I do enjoy the system apocalypse series a lot, but this one doesn't compare.......more
